What Is a Phobia?

A phobia is an intense, persistent fear of a specific object, situation, or activity that poses little or no actual danger. In Berlin, common phobia triggers include crowded public transport, crossing lofty bridges like Oberbaumbrücke, or visiting tall landmarks such as the Fernsehturm.

Quick facts

  • Bis zu 8% of Germans will experience a specific phobia in their lifetime.

  • Avoidance reinforces fear circuits, making professional intervention crucial.

Why Seek Phobia Treatment in Berlin?

  • Quality of life: Enjoy Berlin’s rich culture—from Museum Island to Tempelhofer Feld—without anxiety holding you back.

  • Career advancement: Many international professionals in Mitte & Charlottenburg avoid networking events due to social phobia.

  • Efficient public transport: Overcome U‑Bahn, S‑Bahn, or tram fears and explore every Kiez with confidence.

Evidence‑Based Methods We Use

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT identifies distorted thoughts and replaces them with realistic perspectives. Research shows CBT achieves up to 75% long‑term remission for specific phobias.

Gradual & Systematic Exposure Therapy

In‑session and real‑world exposure tasks—such as riding the glass elevator inside the Reichstag dome—desensitize your fear response.

Desensibilisierung und Wiederaufbereitung von Augenbewegungen (EMDR)

EMDR targets traumatic roots of phobias, rapidly reducing emotional intensity.

Mindfulness & Relaxation Training

Mindful breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, and Berlin’s abundant green spaces (Tiergarten, Treptower Park) foster calm during exposure.
